IMPORTANCE OF HAVING BREAKFAST
Breakfast can help prevent strokes, heart attack and sudden death. Advice on not to skip breakfast!
Healthy living Please…..For those who always skip breakfast, you should stop that habit now! You've heard many times that "Breakfast is the most important meal of the day." Now, recent research confirms that one of the worst practices you can develop may be avoiding breakfast.
VALUE MOMENT
Why?Because the frequency of heart attack, sudden death, and stroke peaks between 6: 00a.m. and noon, with the highest incidence being between 8:00a.m. and 10:00a.m.
What mechanism within the body could account for this significant jump in sudden death in the early morning hours?
This may be the Answer. Platelets, tiny elements in the blood that keep us from bleeding to death if we get a cut, can clump together inside our arteries due to cholesterol or plaque buildup in the artery lining. It is in the morning hours that platelets become the most activated and tend to form these internal blood clots at the greatest frequency.
However, eating even a very light breakfast prevents the morning platelet activation that is associated with heart attacks and strokes. Studies performed at Memorial University in St. Johns, Newfoundland found that eating a light, very low-fat breakfast was critical in modifying the morning platelet activation.
So never ever skip breakfast!
Sedimentary Basins
SaltShale
Sand Petroleum exploration begins with understanding of various natural processes that took place millions of years ago which led to formation of sedimentary rocks
It is believed that remains of animals & plants (which are rich in hydrocarbons) got deposited in these sedimentary rocks. With increase in temperature and pressure these deposits broke down and formed oil
The oil formed migrated through small pores inside rocks and accumulated in structures that could trap oil.
Finding such structures deep inside earth is not easy
Continental DriftThe continents have been moving constantly and over millions of years they have taken the shapes as we know them today
This movement has led to considerable folding and faulting of the original rocks both on the surface of earth (resulting in mountains and valleys) and beneath the surface of earth.
Success in Oil exploration means finding the correct rock types and structures beneath the earth that have the potential to hold large quantities of oil that can be produced commercially
